Depending on who you believe, the woman currently starring in Pitch Perfect 2 as Fat Amy is either a 29-year-old named Rebel Wilson, a 35-year-old named Rebel Wilson, or a 36-year-old named Melanie Bownds. The Sydney Morning Herald (whose perfect URL is smh.com.au) reports today that “Australian business records… »5/19/15 9:50am 5/19/15 9:50am

Over the past week, an unnamed Gawker Media dad has been bringing his four-year-old into the office. While you might (somewhat rightfully) be thinking of us as a group of cold and unfeeling bloggers, this little girl has been warming our hearts and making us laugh continually with her adorable and zany antics. The… »2/20/15 8:40pm 2/20/15 8:40pm

This afternoon, the staff of Jezebel dot com received a curious tip indicating that an impish Redditor tricked readers of this very website into believing that he was three different women, all of whom needed money. He further asserted that the trusting community here sent him that money, which he then used to take… »11/18/14 5:00pm 11/18/14 5:00pm

I'd like to think that I'm pretty good at spotting a liar. Like this morning, when I went to grab some ice cubes for my cold brew and there was only ONE CUBE left between BOTH TRAYS and I said to the 10-year-old, "Did you put the ice cube trays back in the freezer with only one ice cube left?" and she looked at me… »4/09/14 4:15pm 4/09/14 4:15pm

Meet admitted rapist and Idaho State Rep. Mark Patterson (R-Boise). On Sunday, Patterson received notice that his concealed carry license was being revoked because in 2007 and 2012, he lied on his permit application when he said he hadn't pled guilty to rape (Mark Patterson, in fact, did). Patterson is fighting back,… »11/14/13 2:00pm 11/14/13 2:00pm

Hahaahaaaaahahahaahhaahahahaaha, oh, dudes. It seems like every few weeks some goofball on the internet writes another "article" about how evil women are ruining their crotch-feels by cutting off our long, sexual hair. Leaving aside the fact that YOUR OPINION IS IRRELEVANT BECAUSE OTHER PEOPLE'S HAIR NEITHER BELONGS… »11/09/13 12:16pm 11/09/13 12:16pm

The Boston College Confessions Facebook page usually serves as an anonymous forum for BC kids to let off some steam, a place to air their PG-rated unflattering private thoughts in public. Harmless, cheap web therapy. But yesterday, the site posted a confession that's so awful I'm literally shaking after reading it —… »10/02/13 11:50am 10/02/13 11:50am

According to a new survey of 19,500 U.S. members on WhatsYourPrice.com, a seeking arrangements site where "wealthy" men bid on dates with women, one third of New Yorkers lie in their online profiles. For shame, New Yorkers! You seem like such an honest people. »2/27/13 10:30pm 2/27/13 10:30pm

Well, it looks like we finally found the intersection on the Venn diagram for North Korea and tween girls from the 1970s. Both, as it turns out, are super into unicorns. And making things up. »12/03/12 11:00am 12/03/12 11:00am

Do you ever feel jealous when you read magazine articles about "normal girls" who are ostensibly "just like you" yet lead obnoxiously perfect-sounding lives? Like, they throw weekly intimate dinner parties for their 15 closest friends, or their summer "must-have" is one great $500 sarong, or their boyfriend leaves… »6/12/12 2:20pm 6/12/12 2:20pm

Pomegranate juice is fucking dumb. It costs a million dollars, it's hella bitter and gross, and all it's got going for it are "antioxidants," which is the scientific term for "advertising gimmick." Which is why it's so satisfying to hear that a federal judge has ruled that Pom Wonderful juice "used deceptive… »5/23/12 10:25am 5/23/12 10:25am

When scientists set out to find what online daters lie about most, the results weren't that surprising: height and weight. What is really interesting is how you can tell when someone's lying. »2/15/12 6:45pm 2/15/12 6:45pm

Susan G. Komen for the Cure is trying its very hardest to prove to its supporters that it didn't decide to stop giving grants to Planned Parenthood because of an internal or external right wing political agenda, which is steaming, obvious bullshit. Now, it turns out that people from inside Komen confirm that the… »2/02/12 1:20pm 2/02/12 1:20pm
